the main document of the organization is the charter. it contains 26 articles. below are short excerpts. the main goals look like this , as they say, feel the difference with other alliances. strengthening friendship, good neighborliness, mutual trust between member countries, diverse cooperation to enhance regional security and stability, combating transnational security threats, building up economic, cultural, scientific, technical and another important emphasis in the life of the sco, the organization has no attributes military bloc, while washington and its vassals are plunging the planet into the fire of conflicts, heating up and aggravating the situation in ukraine as a whole, pushing the world into the abyss, in the sco club of polar misfortune. here they constantly talk about mutual respect and creation, about strengthening trust, a focus on multipolarity, justice, and compliance with international law. the sco is already claiming the status of the leading guarantor of security. the sco is positioning itself as

a new model of regional cooperation, a rejection of the cold war mentality of politics strength, the desire to show that it is possible to create a new form of culture of interstate relations based on stability and constructiveness. the sco countries did not participate in joint military operations, do not form a common defense budget, and do not introduce uniform standards for weapons. let us once again emphasize the fundamental difference: the main desire is to protect our space from... the challenges of threats, while nato is confrontation, global expansion and endless wars, the consequences of which we know perfectly well. for good neighborly relations peace and stable development in the region are important; economic cooperation between member states in our area of ​​responsibility directly depends on it. during the existence of the organization, the sco has formed four pillars on which we will continue to rely: politics, security, economics and humanitarian. communications. the sco is indeed

attractive to partners based on many criteria. china is the second economy in the world, integration with such a player is already at least an achievement. plus self-form cooperation. it is based on trust, mutual respect and making all decisions based on consensus, when no one puts pressure on anyone, be it a small country or a global player on the world stage. agree, very important and valuable principles in our time. the shanghai cooperation organization, unlike many other structures, including structures created by the western community, for example the european union, is distinguished by a high degree of trust, mutual respect, and is based on the principles of equality, taking into account the interests of all participants in the organization, and it is no coincidence cited the example of the european union, we can recall that in the european union, in nato, structures that...

so to speak, are the will of one actor, the united states. in such a situation of global turbulence, greater eurasia as a whole, that is, yas, sco and csto, is a kind of shield against external threats. not to mention economic self-sufficiency. this is a eurasian highway that they are trying to expand for public use.

belarus is ready to become an active field player in the organization’s space and make a significant contribution to its work for the benefit of our peoples and members of the shanghai organization. our country has been a member of the sco for almost 10 years , and received observer status in 2015. cooperation on such a platform has serious prospects both in the political and trade-economic spheres. in addition, we have excellent relations with the key players, as they say, god himself commanded. the driving force behind the development of the sco are the two countries with whose economies belarus is closely connected. russia we have a format of strategic alliance, with the people's republic of china - strategic partnership and iron brotherhood. it is obvious that based on the task of minimizing the consequences of western sanctions facing the belarusian economy, the sco is becoming one of the platforms for solving it. the sco unites

more than 3 billion people, a huge market, decent capacity, diversification of exports, supplies to distant countries, all this can be solved through the sco, getting faster access to buyers. same india, china, and pakistan. a new prestige appears in belarus; firstly, belarus has more opportunities for direct contacts with leaders of countries that are members of the sco. this is very important in our time, in our world, when almost everything depends on the agreements of top officials. this will expand economic ties. since now at this revolt it was decided to begin the formation of some new financial structure, which means belarus will be a full participant in these discussions and information will not just be brought to it, it will participate in the development of this new system,

a new security system will be created on the basis of the tashkent regional center , again belarus is already taking full part in it. that is, i repeat this formula, belarus is in the top ten. the economy is largely dependent on logistics, the west is trying to undermine it with sanctions, it is quite possible to build its own chains among friends and partners. the scale of the organization itself hints at this. belarus is also interested in stitching together the common transport space of the sco, including through the launch of projects such as the new eurasian land bridge, the belt and road initiative, and transport corridors. south and east-west. important for the country and maximum acceleration of cargo passage through the further implementation of an integrated traffic management system based on digital technologies. all these years , belarus did not serve its number in the organization and tried to move sco integration forward. we regularly acted as a donor of ideas,

initiatives and projects in various fields. the initiatives voiced by the president of belarus at the summit of heads of state of the sco last year in new delhi were reflected in a concentrated and comprehensive manner. the entire agenda of the organization. in essence, belarus proposed seven points of growth and development of the sco for the near future, for example, countering information wars and fakes, threats in cyberspace. this is today a pressing problem for the entire sco space, as well as the topic of a large eurasian partnership, which echoes the long-standing initiative of the head of the belarusian state about integration, integration. this initiative is unique in our opinion; it implies a synergy of the sco's potential. logical friendly interstate associations, eac, csto, brix. most of the sco member countries are located in all these blocks at the same time, but the synergy of their potentials is capable of multiply strengthening the entire eurasian space, the entire eurasian continent. there is, of course, still

a lot of work to be done on the highway; the new significant player in eurasia has not yet formed into a single block and space. and to the degree of integration of the ias, much less a union state, the path here is extremely long, but take it bit by bit and go through it. necessary, preferably without delay. experts suggest that the sco countries think about creating their own currency. a new unit of account that would used exclusively in international relations, would be stable, transparent , protected from various types of sanctions. the process, of course, is long and difficult. in the meantime, at the summit in astana, vladimir putin once again recalled russia’s proposal to create its own sco settlement and payment mechanism. possible education. single market and free trade area the sco will create healthy competition for the products of member states and will contribute to the effective counteraction to sanctions attacks and trade wars of the collective west, will play a significant role in organizing multimodal transport. while the eu is stalling in

crisis, and trying to reward those who do not agree with the common policy with european blows, the sco is expanding its influence. the west will not look at this calmly; historically they cannot stand competitors there. especially today, when the unipolar world can really change. we are moving towards a multipolar world. this transformation is now going through such an acute stage. the world is going through serious trials. but the prospects are absolutely are clear: the changing world is a future multipolar world, in this regard the sco can serve as a kind of symbol of this multipolarity. the main goal of the sco is to strengthen mutual trust, friendship and good neighborliness between states. preventing a significant crack for washington is the main goal; the time has come for the sco to undergo a historic stress test - lukashenko will say at the organization’s anniversary summit in duushanbe in 2021. we see. what powerful external pressure the state and

the organization’s participants face. it is in our power to ensure peace in native land, to defend a multipolar, fair world order for the sake of the future of humanity, where the interests of everyone will be taken into account. we are deeply convinced that in the 21st century it is necessary to build genuine and indivisible global security. at the same time , the countries of the global majority must take the initiative, since the narcissistic, selfish west was not capable of this; today there are no leaders there capable of making responsible decisions on their own. for those who want to live and make friends normally, the sco is an additional important a fulcrum in a turbulent world. alone in the 20th century, obviously already. nowhere, the organization of mutual respect must remain a raft of stability, sometimes it is criticized that there is little

specificity, economic transit potential in these directions and it is true that there is room to develop more actively and bring together national interests, strategies and laws. within the framework of the shanghai cooperation organization , there are huge, enormous prospects for economic interaction, since many of the world's largest economies are brought together, three of...

today is a particularly important example for all geopolitics: a mobile negotiation platform, among other things, a loud signal that we are not alone and also attention to the position of each participant, on the planet, the world is big, there are many countries in it that do not share the mentoring tone of brussels and washington. happily. we are not carpenters, but there are no bitter regrets, just like

there are no, there are installers, high-altitude workers, yes, from above we send you greetings, tripal namri, petervy sadi, and kissed the clouds lightly at the height, you are so sweet, you won’t look down, down. it’s not a fact, again, we work as a team, yes, there is a head coach, there is, why are

the assistants called, the head coach, he gives each coach his own tasks, my task, well, the head coach told me, take the time of the hockey players to record who is replaying shifts , yes, as it were, you probably saw this on the board of my players, i time the time when he came on the ice, yes, when he came off the ice, if he overplayed, i put pluses there. this is one of his main demands, that short shifts be played, yes, that there be energy, teams it will be much faster. the head coach, he can remove the goalkeeper himself, but more often he looked at me and asked: well, what are we doing, yes, as it were, and i have to react quickly, or let us play more or change, in principle, on the bench my task boiled down to this, well, in the training process, your main function is the goalkeeper coach, we guide them, it’s like communication, yes, it’s more with the head,

psychologically, like them, the better the goalkeepers play, the more the team will win, this is ours direct work. i try to give the goalkeeper every option so that he i tried everything, chose the best for myself, i even more often try to make sure that he gets to this point himself, because when people get there on their own, it remains inside them, in the discussion , and i try to understand that a person needs to try to give it to him. kolosov

has improved a lot this year compared to previous years.

but the head coach - you understand, you ’re on the phone every second, every second you don’t sleep for days, but there you have to be active, but there, for now i would like to work at dynamo, as a goalkeeper coach, we have a good team i got ready, there’s something to learn from everyone, it’s been

9 months here, here’s my husband and i and andryushka in a cap, here’s everything that andrey is wearing, everything that’s on me, everything that’s sewn on my husband by me, the city at this time i was just in a high phase of development, the photograph is symbolic, andryusha’s father, his name is anatoly, was a

football goalkeeper, here is his son, he is right next to him in the photograph, he was always behind the goal and watched like a father. catches swords, he was very good at it. chelyabinsk is the center of the southern urals. the biography of his enterprises is pages labor chronicle of our era. the airport began to accept our planes, all sorts of heavy ones , that is, traffic began, it was already easy to fly there to moscow, you didn’t have to travel by train for three days, that is, there were a lot of such moments. i can’t say that we were immensely happy here because we have such an ecology there. but we have lakes within the city limits and lakes and forests outside the city, that is, the whole city traveled out in the summer, explain this distinction between the districts of the city. well, then chelyabinsk metallurgical plant was chelyabinsk metallurgical plant, this is yours, this is where i was born, then chtz is the chelyabinsk tractor plant, leninsky district, but

there are many secret factories there, well, if you know in the leninsky district there was just such a signal plant, then there was the northeast, northwest, but the north-west is more of a residential area, that’s where we moved, my father got an apartment at the factory, so everyone was moved there, and the central area, of course.

it’s new, that means there’s a stadium there, in short, in the winter it was flooded and they played hockey there, and we went there for walks, so we came for a walk, i’m with koryavskaya and my daughter, my husband is playing hockey with the guys, so andrei is sitting on the bench, watching them play, they didn’t have a goalie, they say, listen, put your guy in, and he means, in general for some reason, he immediately decided in early childhood that he would be a goalkeeper.

condensed milk - that was of course, but we made it all the time, then we made lollipops ourselves, and for me chewing gum was something, i wanted chewing gum, well, we didn’t have it, we had chelyarinsk chewing gum yes... yellow, i remember exactly packaging, but it was possible without teeth to stay, because of his hearing, he looks at a person very carefully and understands speech from his lips, this is his, he is a good goalkeeper because he has amazing eyesight, that is, he sees through everything, that means one defect gave such advantages in life in general, that is, during the birth, the doctor made a mistake and caused damage. andryushin’s auditory nerve at the time of his birth, this did not immediately manifest itself, so instead of grandmother he said

grandma, grandpa, because he couldn’t talk to anything, and i spent 2 and a half years to find a speech therapist who would give him letters, well, in fact , it turned out that the speech therapist gave him a letter with and after she gave him... he began to go to training with a huge trunk, this is across the yard, that is, he is generally like that gained authority in the courtyard, that is, he immediately became the hero of the courtyard, many could not

understand from people... who, who has difficulty hearing, well, recently i was tested, i have 70% hearing loss, so they say, but the speech is delivered like this that people who have been hard of hearing since childhood, well, there is no such speech, so and they can’t understand that i really don’t hear well, i learned to read lips, and read, look my interlocutor in the face, i learned to cope with myself, with emotions, yes, this is also character, and to overcome, that is, you have problems now, i i use headphones, yes, especially when there are meetings. the coaching staff, so as not to miss anything, there was little filming at the game, this is not a hearing aid, communication with the assistant coach, well, on the coaching bridge, yes, i had this at andreevsky’s, the two of us, this is communication with the video coach, chelyabinsk metal games today they produce 600 grades of high-quality steel. for 2 years i was at chmz in metaluga, so my mother brought me because they saw that i had the makings, here is my first coach dubroven, i

remember exactly, a sunny morning, so well, lunch, probably everything, at 12 my mother took me from kindergarten , we came and it turns out the guys skated and walked, i remember them exactly, the sun, it was already spring and the goalkeeper comes out from this site, and well, from his back he’s so healthy, well, he’s just huge, well, i’m beautiful so uh, like like knights of daspekha, i definitely have this in my head. so i was with him for 2 years in chemsha, playing for guys 3 years older, this also helped me, that’s why we transferred, well then, of course, an invitation came from the tractor, my name is tatarintsev konstantin sergeevich, we went through the children’s tractor school together with andrey mezin, born in 1974, head coach viktor mikhailovich peregudov. as i

understand it, there was an open space here, that is, you played in the open air, an open skating rink without a roof, this grandstand is large there was, but this is the one we found, two ages came out to this area, we skated, but if we take the soviet era, then after the cosmonauts, hockey was probably the most popular, and higher than ballet, and higher than ballet, well... i loved hockey, took me, and somehow instilled it in me, and even earlier in those years, hockey was generally a very popular sport, then viktor mikhailovich peregudov took us and led us until graduation, you told me without a camera, but i’m surprised that there are really a lot of cool names in one team, this is exclusively the role of a children's coach, yes, this is the merit of viktor mikhailovich, it was he who brought us together, he instilled a love for hockey, developed

these skills in us, but he... tinkered with us from morning to evening, well, he was about 9 years old :10 arrived. the first time you saw it, did you realize there was something there? or he was the same as everyone else, nothing stood out, but we were all like boys who loved hockey, loved the game, tractor school, we, i will say, had a graduation, 10 or 12 people played at the highest level, well, this was one of the best releases ever, you had gonchar, gonchar, nazarov, bet, skalin, a wheelwright then before, as we had, the school was, firstly , the director of the school of carpenters, he was lately a very tough man, you sometimes leave this school from the sports school, there is a separate sports building, each year has its own locker room , you don’t move anywhere, just go to you needed ice, and so he meets you in the corridor, well, there was a horizontal bar on the street, he says, well, quickly did 10 pull-ups, if you didn’t pull yourself up, all this is a disaster there?

somehow they made not only hockey players out of you, but also tried to make decent people, it was such that our collective itself somehow got rid of dishonest people, i just hear you now, you know, everything looks so exemplary, a soviet boy, a robot appeared in the family, went to hockey, was purposeful, didn’t you really have any problems in childhood there, i don’t know, with anyone, no, well, look, my daily routine, yes it was, on monday we had school from 8 in the morning, before school...

there was a training session right away, then at first everyone there was given a ticket 1 ruble, we went to the dining room and ate, then we came to locker room we rested a lot, we also had an evening training, and the evening training was in the gym, for example, our coach, so he agreed, the coach, a professional gymnast, that’s it, and we went to the gym, we have training in the gym, the next day the same thing is repeated, after school we have ice, then lunch, rest and in the evening - some kind of team sports, yes there is football, handball, on weekends we have games, first it was the city championship, then it was... the ural cup was, this is already with moving, yes, here, well here can you imagine, this is how our whole life is, our team, we were stewing with each other, the person of your life, as i understand it, one and the other, yes, well, it turns out , yes, how much, well, let’s talk about the first one,

who raised you, you can say, yes, in part, i came a little later, already, in principle , trained, a little, yes, and as it were, in principle, i skated better than the other two goalkeepers, yes, and there such a situation happened that because of that that i switched to a tractor. and somehow, either he crossed incorrectly, or something else, 20 points were taken off the tractor then didn’t take first place in the city, at that time hockey models, who were you, who did you look up to? then tretyak was, probably, he was the most popular in the ussr, well, for me he was the strongest player, my idol was then, they didn’t leave him in the tractor, but they didn’t make him an offer, i told andrey, andrey, let’s take a year off , so... and he says: mom, we won’t take a break, i’m called to the polytechnic, to the hockey team. stanislav masharov played together with andrei mezin in the polytechnic hockey team. i'm sergey azarhin. andrey and i we played in the polytechnic team, it was a student team from ninety-one to

ninety-three. we are now in the locker room of the student team of the polytechnic, in the ninety-first year it was half the size, 20 people, right? yes, but they were more friendly, mine is here, andrei, just opposite, and andrei still plays football very well. hockey class of viktor mikhailovich peregudova, who has produced more than one generation, we have hockey players, we have the next year, i was in 1967, i was also in 1966 viktor mikhailovich, therefore, knew his skill, this was their first such men’s hockey, because they graduated from children’s and youth school, the nature of the fight at that time - well , just so you understand, and the regional championship consisted of about, probably 12-14 teams, all the teams were factory teams and there were only two student teams, the chpi institute and the chmsa. factory teams are men there , about 40 years old, who, well, they have a release from the factory, but they went out onto the field, and we were like boys of 18-19 years old, here we were already

accomplished men, it was very difficult, that is in terms of the fact that there were all violations, blows and so on, that is, we accepted all of this, accordingly it was almost impossible to answer in those days, there for respect, well... a hockey rink, it has such an interesting history, it built with the help of professional builders, but with the hands of students, you see, a small attack zone, the blue line is close to the goal, it’s like the intensity of more shots, a closer angle, so i think this experience was also useful to him, next to the gagarin park, in fact, where we ran cross-country on these tracks,

everything was decided here, of course, of course, everything was decided in hockey, but it was vladimir ivanovich lepkalo, coach of the polytechnic hockey team, he, in principle, united many generations here, and thanks to him student hockey was developing; those were not the best years for the development of hockey, student hockey, and all sports. this is the beginning of a professional career, this is novopolotsk, where andrey is.

i sent them earlier, and , of course, we met with them in the summer, talked, they they say: oh, cool, the city, we like everything, peregudov just met my mother, so he said, why didn’t we go, my mother also acted as an agent, she acted, probably yes, and i remember exactly, we then we met at the nazarovs’ house, it was peregudov jr., peregudov sr., my parents were there, we were family friends with nazarov, and peregudov told me, why did you end like that, well...

that’s it, the session begins, peregudov flew to

chelyabinsk, again i met my mother, well, one evening she came and says: i had a meeting, well, i thought that my mother wanted me to be a businessman and study, i didn’t continue playing hockey, but for me it was kind of comfortable at the polytechnic, so my mother says: well listen, well, i see how you are suffering and with this university, don’t you want to play? i say, well, of course i want to, i want some certain heights, but you and i agreed that hockey will end, and studies, well, it’s as if she’s saying: no, just try, if it doesn’t work, you’ll go back to institute, you will start studying again, he says, well , try, otherwise in the future you will regret the missed opportunity, this is the time in the states,

you are a guy from chelyabinsk, a harsh city, with happiness, come, the even more modest city of belsk, then in ninety-three you go to the united states of america, america in the nineties, hockey in the nineties, this is something like that, you know from...

i had a junior, colonial league,

then an international league, an american league, you just listed it in order, well , yes, yes , well, in principle, tseplakov went through this same road, he started in the colonial league, then he started playing in the international league, then he made it to the nhl, but i already got my next chance when i was already over 30, when glenn hanlen headed the belarusian national team, here he is after the first season, he invited me to try in washington on his team. well, but at that time i had a contract with uva, probably a good one, so i say what the conditions are, he says, well, the most important thing for me to know from you is whether you want it or not, we didn’t even talk about money. for me it was it doesn’t matter, because this is the best league in the world, everyone dreams of getting there, in the sixth year i was already 32 years old, so he told me that i guarantee 20 games, my question was, what if i play better than the main goalkeeper , i’ll play more, he said no, i have a goalkeeper who gets 7 million, he

has to play, earn his money, like business, nothing personal, nothing personal, but at least he guaranteed me 20 games. this is a very significant photograph, this is the ninety-eighth year, nogan olympics games, this is the time when the games have not yet begun, but they just sort of arrived there, after that they showed me a very good result, he says: well, i’m going to minsk in 3 days, i say, i’m coming, i say, what for the olympics there, there are a lot of all sorts of mathematical ones, he says, mom, how will the olympic games be covered, i rolled my eyes, he says, mom, so you know that the olympic games, i say, well, i know, and andrei is in approximately the same state , came to these olympic games, as he told me,

then, well, firstly, for some reason he had there were a lot of fans, the day when they celebrated their wonderful results. also the national team of belarus, he says, i found myself in a period when i was not tired, that is, these emotions, they overwhelmed him, they lay down in the right way, yes, yes, in nagan, yes, yes, i’m talking about nagan, so he had such a situation that he said, mom, at first i felt that i could, remember?

probably yes, that’s why everyone remembers that olympics, for me it’s probably the most emotional olympics was, pomkou, reducing the gap of evidence to a minimum, in general they dressed us there, i don’t know, i had two trunks, probably there were things to go to the parade, coats and hats there, what else do i remember, then alexander grigorievich arrived, and he in the morning i came to the screening, everyone gathered in the center, he gave us a parting speech, and how cool it was, how successful. but then there was a feeling that the backbone of the belarusian national team was beginning to mature in order to shoot away from lek city, it was the same team, only on four years older, they played better in nagana than in salt lake city, we basically fought all the games, we qualified for the french who played in group a, can you imagine, we haven’t played in group a yet, but being in

group b we beat the germans 4:0, the germans 8:2, well , imagine, the teams play in group a, we are in group b and we simply carry them forward with our feet. salt lake is the same team as. already older and began to concede more, roughly speaking, we did not have enough strength, that’s because , well, we had the oldest team, firstly, friends, andrei kovalev could not reveal to his people that for their generation it was exactly where andrei played, there was tsyplokol, a dog to dig, so they just reached the peak of their form, that is, just here the age was so optimal, when the guys had to shoot, prove something, prove themselves. they have a fairly even composition, because there were no direct superstars there, in nagana, when bure and other quite cool stars arrived there, and the belarusians had a very even team, but they she was so united, so very skillful, and most importantly, she was motivated to really win something with this generation, the referee throws and the belarusians

take the lead 2:1, the puck goes to our kovalev, well, andrey, score, well, this is soltexy real, this is real. well, it somehow happened with the swedes, and you , being at that moment of throwing the hoof at the goal , you remember this one from the right, well, from this zone , his throw, you just saw how the fat goes to the puck, no, i saw it. like, well, i didn’t think it would be a goal, just if look carefully in the first period, there was almost the same moment, they also threw from the middle zone, and he headed it off, it

flew away, well, outside the throw-in area in their zone, less than 2.5 minutes before the end of the third period, the puck hits tobila and the swedish goal bounces at 4:34 and i think here in his head that’s how i analyze it. how can a goalkeeper of this level miss such a goal, i think that initially he probably also wanted to hit her with his head so that she would go to the stands, but the throw-in would have been in their zone and this is in basically dangerous, i think that at the moment he first made a decision with his head, and then changed his mind and began to catch it with his hand, that split second just stopped him, he didn’t use his head, not his hand, it was in his scruff, to be honest, i didn’t even believe me, the atmosphere is just great. yes there, and it was the guys themselves who created it, this is vancouver, yes, because

my helmet is already dynamo, glue antonenko, you are the man who played in three olympics, it turns out, well, in three, but he could have done more. well, if i had gone to riga for qualification, we could have gone to italy, we could have gone to sochi didn’t make it, very often there were team events, yes, this was the first time i tried to play golf, yes, well, they showed me how to hit, you played calmly, then many in... when i was already playing professional sports, yes, after training, there are one-time training sessions, usually the weather is good and the guys

get together, go play golf, well, i think, why should i sit at home, yes, when the field opened here in minsk, of course, i came and started playing here, and for me it is a hobby when i enjoy process, this is football, basketball, volleyball, maybe the load is not the same there, but in football i always later, when i was old , i played in germany, i was in good standing, with the management, in the club i was a leader, in germany always, well, there is official hippodromes, yes, where official horse racing takes place, and somehow they decided to invite athletes, well , they offered me, i say, you’re like a horse, i won’t come close, he’ll kill you with his hoof, well, how scary, they say, no , well, it’s not for the horse itself to gallop... how many times we four, probably, this is how we rode, trained, explained to us, i met with the horse’s owners, first there’s a warm-up, the horse

warms up, then there’s a race, and after one race that’s it, you ride out, again a short warm-up, it was necessary to ride a circle, then half a circle, accelerate at full speed, there are 3.00 spectators sitting there, watching, but i’m nervous, people there are letting out air, but you’re not very fast yet, there’s a second horse running, and there’s also a rider in the back, there’s a muzzle sticking out, who

’s riding behind me i just let go of mine and she shot like a bullet, just well, i finished already in the city there alone, well, at the end , they lifted me up there to the vip room, all the jockeys there with a victory, just your age was so cool, yes, from 25 to 30, yes, in this window , it’s probably very good for hockey good yes in terms of it is straight. for you the best and most stable time is the german championship? firstly, the level was not bad, berlin is an ordinary big metropolis, minsk is still cleaner. how did it even happen that a goalie can break crosses not on hockey ice? i was preparing for the season and, as we said, i loved it playing football, there was some kind of unevenness, well , i immediately felt that the pain was so strong, i went back to play, and so i took the ball, i had a feeling that my leg was just going to fall off and...

i was very pleased and the management they tried to persuade me to stay, they gave me a new contract, but i didn’t like the decisive game, they didn’t trust me in the playoffs and we lost it. magnitogorsk , my first very good season, we took bronze, the second season we also took bronze, but the results were already worse, but this is the ninth year. my name is ivan savin, and i played with andrei mezin in the metallurg magnitogorsk team, i

played with andrei in metallurg magnitogorsk. spent one season in boch, we were close friends with him, and i am also now the general director of the tractor hockey club, we signed a contract together at the same time, lived in chelyabinsk, but went to work in magnitogorsk, and we were always on the road this time, well, while we got to magnitka we always laughed, moreover, we lived in magnitogorsk in the same entrance, each other walked in the same way visiting a friend from the same city, we have one such life concept, one philosophy. this is always a turning point feature of our chelyabinsk guys - this is determination, and what is it like to go out for a tractor, for your native club, when you ’ve never played closer to forty, maybe sometimes it was even harder to play in your hometown, but sort of, because well such a responsibility, well, this was a big event, probably for the guy, of course, the return of every chelyapin student when he goes on the ice is of great importance, we know that he was recognized as the best goalkeeper at the world championship, but it’s a really cool achievement to be

the best goalkeeper in the whole world and in order... to achieve these heights you need, of course , to simply invest in hard work, so here in this regard andrey certainly has no equal, championship world 2006, we have the best result, some generation came up well, hanlon’s talent, his first arrival, no one has ever encountered such an approach, short training, one-time use. he was already the head coach in washington, henlen and heikel, different people? no, well, of course , yes, it turns out things didn’t work out for you with heikel, can you explain in a nutshell how it happened that the top belarusian goalkeeper picked up his things and flew off to the world hockey championship, i was clearly told,

you i’m not needed either in the national team or in dynamo, well , i... didn’t see the point in continuing to be there, they bet on koval, koval played the first two games, please, even if he plays eight, it would be a problem for me no, he just got injured and after that they didn’t want to give me to play, so naturally i then asked a question, i said why, well , they answered me, because well, you are not needed either in the national team or in the dynamo, no one is counting on you, i spent the whole day at the airport, not a single one. .. a call, nothing, how, why, no one even tried to bring me back, well, this made it clear to me that, in principle , i was not needed. andrey, we are at the place where you played the last match in your life on a personal level for the belarusian national team, let’s probably remember about this match first, you were already about 40 years, well, yes, almost 40, yes, that is, a very mature age and it happened right on this ice, what kind of match was it,

tell us why it was the last and what surrounded this fight, well... the opening match was with americans, there was a background before this world cup, i didn’t plan to compete at all, because my son was supposed to have surgery, but hanlan came, came to my home, persuaded my wife, the americans are the only team that i didn’t beat, well, i thought it was good that my son would have an operation on the same day, and they postponed it just to the day of the game, well, i thought that, in principle, my character would be enough, and there were so many events, and how to overcome it all, well, it turned out to be a little wrong. lost 1:6 and after the game i’m already talking to my wife, she’s all in tears, telling how everything happened, well, i realized that i made the wrong choice, and for me at that moment hockey was over, you can say so, but you remember, this match ended against the usa, right here, yes, you probably go to the stands, and to the locker room, you remember some details, you are leaving minskarena, that’s what ’s happening at that moment, the world championship

was going on, so i just thought, well , maybe in a day or two it will all end somehow. there’s a big holiday around here, yes, for the belarusian national team, this story is generally unusual for you, because you are a guy from chelyapinsk, we discussed this with you, and but you became for the belarusian national team, i don’t know, there is no more important goalkeeper in the history of belarusian hockey, well, no , look, what is it all about? for you, for a guy who grew up in chelyabinsk, the belarusian national team, what did it become for you? andrei mezin saved 31 shots out of thirty -two that were aimed at his goal, well, now it can be said that it has become my native country, thanks to alexander grigorievich, with his permission, as they say, a guy from russia was allowed to play for the belarusian national team, i would very much like to i’m grateful to him, the team gave me a lot, it gave me a lot.

you saw him as a very young guy, right at that time? no, we met here, first in the youth team, when we played our first year, playing in america, and i too in america, he and i crossed paths during the qualifying tournament in riga, when it was, i think it was 1996, soleil and i, i’ll say, became good friends, from then on we started to communicate more closely, then we were always on the same team we didn’t play with him, well, because he didn’t… get into the nhl later, but we always teamed up together. can you give an example of a story that particularly characterizes ruslan? teams are understandable, they are an example, he put hockey players in their place, yes, he was always a leader, a leader in the locker room, yes, and even more so, well,

this is one of the most famous hockey players in our country, that’s why his word is law there, everyone listened, yes, although he was a sympathetic guy, he always, as if he refused to help anyone , both being overseas and being here. always tried to help everyone, extended his hand, it just happened that you know, people are leaving from those nineties of our hockey, but ruslan soley, tseplakov, kolts are gone now, you somehow analyzed that i understand what is for you every personal story is difficult, but here's why this is how it happens, these are the legends, you know, at the dawn of their strength, it’s clear that everyone has completely different circumstances, all three have a big heart, a strong, very strong character, these are the right people, i don’t know why this is so... you’re in a dark match with tseplak spent with the belarusian national team, he also has experience in the nhl, and a truly unique hockey player, that’s when you saw him on the ice, that’s what you can

identify in him as his main quality, i’ll say that he’s such a fighter right on the ice and a leader , just like koltsov, he too leader, my husband gave me these bells shortly before his death. i actually have a whole collection of these bells, i have them folded into this, and i say that suddenly i haven’t been collecting it for a long time, he says, well, let it remain somehow.
